I really don't want to be emperor at the end of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 25
Chapter 024

I ate a very authentic breakfast in the capital. Because of the rain, I couldn't go out to play. Although the rain wasn't too heavy, it didn't feel good to be drenched in the body.

In desperation, Cheng Shijie took Cheng Jiayue, Cheng Jialong and Xiang Hui to Joy City.

"You're wasting money again!"

"Money earned is spent!"

"You need to save some flowers to live!"

"Money is not saved, it is earned. Five thousand yuan a month, no matter how you save it, how much money can you save in a year?"

Cheng Shijie plausibly said: "It is better to try every means to make more money than digging out his heart to save money!"

In Joy City, Cheng Shijie took a pair of sons and daughters to play with dolls.

Cheng Jialong and Cheng Jiayue each spent 50 yuan, but nothing was caught.

Cheng Shijie scanned another 50 yuan: "Come here, wife!"

Xiang Hui waved his hand: "This is a trap, you can buy ten for one hundred and fifty!"

"It's just a game, look how happy the children are!"

Xiang Hui disagreed.

"Father, come and catch me!"

Cheng Shijie went off in person, and he knew the principle of the claw machine. This was set in advance by the computer program. In order to stimulate the player's interest, it will increase the grip at a set probability.

For the same 50 yuan, Cheng Shijie caught three dolls.

"Dad is amazing!"

"Dad is amazing!"

Cheng Shijie distributed the caught dolls to Cheng Jialong, Cheng Jiayue, and Xiang Hui.

Then, the family went to the Children's Paradise.

Cheng Jiayue and Cheng Jialong had a great time inside.

Cheng Shijie wanted to take advantage of the Wuqiao Mutiny to get some antiques from the late Ming Dynasty, as well as some copper coins...

These things have a problem with their origin and need a cover.

Cheng Shijie looked at Xiang Hui and said, "My wife has something to discuss with you!"

"what?"

"Not far from our community, the waste collection station at the south end of Baihua Road?"

Xiang Hui nodded and said, "I know, I have sold scraps a few times!"

"Old Wu's health is failing, and he wants to transfer the waste collection station!"

Cheng Shijie said: "I want to pick up that waste collection station."

"received?"

Xiang Hui was slightly taken aback: "Who will take care of you? No matter how bad it is, you need to occupy someone. You need to go to work, and I need to watch Jiayue..."

Cheng Shijie had already thought about the personnel problem: "Isn't there a dumb person in your hometown?"

"What a mute, that's my uncle!"

"Oh, yes, my uncle!"

Cheng Shijie said: "My uncle can't speak, and he can't read and write. In his hometown, he usually lives on two acres of land, and he is hungry and full. Let's take him over. He can do most of the jobs in the waste collection station!"

"He can't do it either. If he doesn't know how to count, then he won't be cheated to death by others?"

Cheng Shijie said: "He can't, what about culture?"

Culture, surnamed Jiang.It is an orphan adopted by Cheng Shijie's grandfather Jiang Feng. He is born with polio. Although he has grown up, his left and right legs are similar to those of a baby.

Although Jiang Wenhua didn't go to school, he taught himself a lot of culture with Cheng Shijie's grandfather. Because of his disability, he couldn't find a job, so he could only make a living with Jiang Feng by repairing household appliances.

However, with the end of the era of barbaric development of the home appliance industry, all major brands of home appliances have after-sales service, and the quality of appliances is getting better and better, and the business of home appliance repair is getting worse.Of course, not everyone is bad. As long as you cheat and cheat without conscience, you can still make a lot of money.

But Jiang Wenhua is very upright, and he will never be like others. Obviously, he charges two yuan for electronic components that cost a few cents, because the price has not increased in more than ten years, and now he can't even pay the rent.

"If that's the case, then it's okay!"

Xiang Hui thought for a while and said, "Let Uncle Dumb do it and Uncle Wenhua take care of it. If I have time, I'll keep an eye on it!"

"It doesn't really matter whether the waste collection station makes money or not!"

Cheng Shijie said: "Grandpa is getting older and older. If it wasn't for Uncle Wenhua, he would have retired a long time ago!"

Discussed with Xiang Hui about the scrap collection station, played with the children until noon, and when the weather cleared up in the afternoon, I bought a ticket and went to Tianqiao to listen to a cross talk.

But it's a pity that there are no famous actors, and they are all ordinary students.

In this way, Cheng Shijie took Cheng Jiayue to see the Forbidden City, the Summer Palace, the Aquarium, the Forest Park, the Ming Tombs, and toured around the various scenic spots in the capital until Professor Chang came back.

Accompanied by Xu He and his wife, they came to the Armed Police Hospital for an examination. According to Professor Chang's words, Cheng Jiayue's condition should be operated on as soon as possible. However, it is difficult to find a heart source suitable for Cheng Jiayue. Nowadays, most of the domestic organs are donated. Resistance attitude.

Heart source must rely on fate.If it is an adult, then the organs of the adult body are already mature, and a 30-year-old body can be used with a 50-year-old heart. However, Cheng Jiayue is young, and the choice of the heart is too small, and the source of the heart is more difficult.

Through this consultation, it also confirmed Cheng Shijie's determination to go abroad to treat Cheng Jiayue's condition.

After playing in the capital for half a month, I finally set foot on the return journey.

Cheng Shijie commissioned an intermediary to apply for a medical visa to the beautiful country. The most important thing is that he must buy the house on the second floor.The process of buying a house was not tortuous, because the community was old and dilapidated, and there was no demolition plan, so it was easy to buy.

After Cheng Shijie bought the house, he changed the lock on the room on the second floor. From then on, this was his private space.

Cheng Shijie was very busy, busy talking with Lao Wu about the transfer of the waste collection station, and then went to his hometown to pick up the dumb uncle and the cultural uncle.

Among them, Uncle Wenhua's side was not going well, because he didn't want to leave Cheng Shijie's grandfather.

Cheng Shijie took both grandfather and Jiang Wenhua over.

In the end, Lao Wu agreed to the transfer for the sake of money.The area of ​​this waste collection station is about [-] square meters, and there are actually four small two-story buildings where you can live.

After completing the arrangements for later generations, Cheng Shijie eagerly returned to the late Ming Dynasty.

When I came to Dengzhouwei’s Zuoqianhusuo again, the entire Qianhusuo almost changed its appearance. The gap or gap that could have entered a person or directly pushed a cart in and out has disappeared, and replaced it with a two-foot-long road. There is a surplus of city walls.

The current city wall is still being reinforced and heightened, and the entire Qianhusuo has become a huge construction site.

"Meet Lord Qianhu!"

Cheng Shijie saw that Qianhusuo not only gained popularity, but also had the smell of fireworks in the world.Now Qianhusuo finally looks like what a city should look like.Brand new warehouses, stables, wells, paved roads.

"Master Qianhu, you are back!"

Zhang Ruyi reported to Cheng Shijie the progress of the project and food expenditures during this period. Only then did Cheng Shijie discover that Zuoqianhusuo was proficient in everything except fighting.

For example, the repair work of dozens of large warehouses in Qianhusuo has basically been completed, such as roofs, doors and windows, which should be repaired or replaced.The thousand-household house that was originally empty has also completed most of the furniture.

Touching the mirror-like desktop with my own hands, these newly built furniture such as tables, chairs, cabinets, and beds all represent the painstaking efforts of these craftsmen.

"During this period, the Qianhu Institute employs more than 800 people every day, and now has more than 9000 people."

"Why so many?"

"I heard that the thousand households here are given food for work, and the military households who ran away would rather be punished than come back!"

This era is not like the later generations. There are too many places for workers in the later generations. As long as there is no shortage of hands and feet, it is not too difficult to find a job. The difference is only a matter of more money and less money.Can't find a job with a monthly income of [-], can't you find a job with a monthly income of [-]?
But it was different at the end of the Ming Dynasty, because there were no factories, not to mention wages, if you want to find a job that can manage food, people may not want you, because there are too many refugees who can use it.

During the period when Cheng Shijie returned to later generations, Zuoqianhu had changed a lot, and Cheng Shijie didn't need to worry about it at all. There were already three more kilns here, specializing in the production of bricks and tiles, which were used to replace dilapidated houses.

Because many doors and windows need to be replaced, there are more than 40 shade-dried houses here, because the trees that have just been cut down are wet wood, which can neither be used for doors, windows, nor furniture, and need to be dried in the shade.But drying wood takes time.

Thus, the drying room of Zuoqianhusuo appeared.

The drying room is like a fire pit in the Northeast of later generations. The heat generated by combustion can quickly dry the moisture in the fresh wood, so that you can quickly obtain usable wood without worrying about dehydration, cracking or deformation of the wood.

There are more people working, although most of the military households habitually wear bare feet, but bare feet are easy to be injured, and it also delays earning money. Many military households ask their mothers-in-law to make shoes and socks. More than 300 women work overtime to make them. Footwear is in short supply.

After listening to Zhang Ruyi's talk about the changes during this period, he couldn't wait to watch the army. No matter how prosperous the thousand households are, they are all rootless duckweed. Only the army is the foundation of his life.

When Cheng Shijie saw his army, recalling the feeling of seeing the national flag guard, he frowned slightly.

The gap is too big.

It is simply a difference between cloud and mud.

Cheng Shijie realized the seriousness of the problem.

"gather!"
